"Sweet might be in the title, but there is a little bit of sass in the pages as well"

Amanda comes from a good family. Her dad is a retired
judge, debating if he wants to run for a government
position. Her mom is the district attorney. Amanda
never
wanted to follow in her parent's choice of careers.
Amanda
went to school, learned how to cook and majored in
business.
So with these two degrees behind her, she decides to open
a
restaurant and named it Cold Creek. Amanda loves her
restaurant and is perfectly happy to only have this in her
life.
Into her restaurant and life comes Chase. Chase is a
major
league baseball. Chase see's Amanda and falls head over
heels for her. Amanda on the other hand is not real
excited to be called out by him. Chase does everything
that he can think of to win Amanda over. At first she
wants no part of him. However, he finally wears her down
and she agrees to go on a date with him.
After the first date, Amanda realizes that she is hooked.
Chase treats her like a princess yet Amanda feels
something
is missing. Chase has a shameful secret that he finally
reveals to her. Amanda is not quite sure if she can deal
with this, but after one of his kisses that hit her SWEET
SPOT, she knows there is no turning back now.
SWEET SPOT is the second novel that Stephanie Evanovich
has
written. Have to say, I like this one better than the
first one. I am not saying that I didn't like the first
one, but this one was better. Evanovich has a way of
writing so that I easily found myself in Amanda's life,
wishing it was mine. Stephanie Evanovich added a bitof
steaminess to SWEET SPOT... not too much just enough to
make some people blush.
I really enjoyed the way that she made her main characters
come together and though the good and the bad they made it
work.
SUMMARY
A sizzling story of everyone’s favorite couple from
amazing
Stephanie Evanovich’s New York Times bestseller
Big Girl Panties: hunky professional baseball
player Chase Walker and his sassy wife Amanda. When
pro baseball player Chase Walker first meets Amanda at her
restaurant, it’s love at first sight. While Amanda can’t
help noticing the superstar with the Greek-god-build, he
doesn’t have a chance of getting to first—or any other—
base
with her. A successful entrepreneur who’s built her
business
from scratch, Amanda doesn’t need a Prince Charming to
sweep
her off her feet. And a curvy girl who likes to cook and
eat
isn’t interested in being around the catty, stick-thin
herd
of females chasing Chase and his teammates. But
Chase
isn’t about to strike out. A man who isn’t interested in
playing the field, he’s a monogamist who wants an
independent woman like Amanda. His hopes rally when she
discovers that squeaky-clean Chase has a few sexy and very
secret pre-game rituals that turn the smart, headstrong
businesswoman on—and into his number one fan. Then a
tabloid discovers the truth and turns their spanking good
fun into a late- night punchline. Is Amanda ready to let
loose and swing for the fences? Or will the pressure of
Chase’s stardom force them to call it quits?
